Women's Weekly x Nivea Promotion at Kinokuniya

Kinokuniya is giving away a 50ml pot of Nivea Visage Sparkling White Day Care cream with purchase of the November issue of Singapore Women's Weekly. The cream has a retail value of S$18.25. The magazine costs just S$3.90. Thanks to my Kinokuniya members card, I paid only S$3.50. The Nivea promotion is exclusive to Kinokuniya. Here's the product description. The cream does contain alcohol, silicones and parabens so it may not be suitable for ladies who are sensitive to any of these ingredients. The cream is manufactured in Thailand. I found the texture to be very light and it absorbed easily without leaving any oily or sticky feeling. The cream supposedly has advanced UVA/UVB protection but there is no SPF rating stated on the box so I would not advise using this as a sunblock. The magazine also comes bundled with 1-for-1 coupons at 20 restaurants/cafes including Al Dente Trattoria (pasta), Forlino ($148 5-course degustation menu), District 10 (pizza), Ginza Bairin (tonkatsu), the Handburger (applies only to the Dessert burger with the 70% chocolate patty), Il Lido ($148 5-course degustation menu) and RamenPlay (at 313@Somerset) etc. The coupons are included in every copy and are not exclusive to Kinokuniya. They are valid from 15 October to 30 November
